Default 1974 Tornado Outbreak


Do you remember April 3rd, 1974? It was 30 years ago tomorrow. I was 8
years old then, but I remember vividly the loss of life and the
destruction of our homes.

How many of you were living in Kentucky, Ohio or Indiana on that day?
I'm sure if you were here you will never forget it either. Here is a
link to some stories and pictures of the tornado outbreak on that day.

Default 1974 Tornado Outbreak

Hi Don, I've never actually been to the US but I do have an unhealthy
interest in tonado's and have been reading a lot about the 1974 outbreak in
the last few months. I am part of a weather forum out in Alabama and there
are many stories on there from that day. In fact they had a commemorative
ceremony in Athens, AL to remember the people who lost their lives that day.
Quite a few from this forum have attended.
I'll include a couple of links of some of the fascinating stories...
